Station X has disappeared from the maps is there a problem?

All of the data plotted by XCWeather is obtained from free sources on the internet and sometimes this data is temporarily unavailable. This maybe because of problems on the internet itself (web servers crashing, internet connections going down) or because of equipment problems at the station. In addition to transient problems, some stations are only manned during office hours so they disappear overnight and at weekends. Others are just notoriously fickle and only seem to submit reports when they feel like it (Blackpool and Cosford are two examples in this category). In any event XCWeather will keep looking for the data every half an hour and automatically start plotting it as soon as it’s available. Unfortunately it’s rare that I can do anything to speed up this process.
